Pennsylvania Swimming Pool Accident Lawyer Erie Attorney 2012

June 12, 2012

June 12, 2012, ERIE, PA — Sometimes, the Pennsylvania injury lawyer in me just can’t help seeing a change of seasons as a time to worry about new hazards.  Our household saw its last day of school last Friday and the invitations to visit our friends and neighbors for pool parties have begun already.  We’re grateful for such friends (I carefully select my friends using important criteria like pool ownership, boat ownership and hunting camp ownership) but it reminds me that Pennsylvania people are going to be spending a lot of time in and around swimming pools. As an Erie injury attorney who has represented people in far too many tragic pool accidents, I feel obliged to post reminders about swimming pool safety.

We’ve posted a lot of information about swimming pool safety on our website in the past.  Here’s a quick index with hyperlinks to articles for pool owners and users alike. Just click on the link to be taken to the article.

* General Pool Safety Tips

* The Consumer Product Safety Commission Backyard Pool Guide

* The CPSC Guide to Pool Entrapment Hazards

* The CPSC Guide to Preventing Child Drownings

* Swimming Pool Safety Barrier Guidelines

* Simple Pool Safety Steps

Outdoor swimming ought to be one of those pleasures that we all get to enjoy and, with just a little preparation and forethought, it will be just that for you and your family. If you own a pool, you absolutely should read and follow all of the relevant safety guidelines that came with your pool and that are required by your local municipal guidelines and, by all means, read and consider the guidelines and tips we post here.
